Just got this email today, but what I can’t figure out is i setup up the AppleCare One on my iPhone 16 Pro Max and it’s signed into my iCloud account?! I double checked my serial number and it matches. Did anyone else get this?
To be honest, if I saw this email, I would think it was a phishing email. It has red flags all over to include a false sense of urgency.I called AppleCare, the email was from them. She can see where it was flagged that “warning” went out. I confirmed with her that I haven’t signed out of my iCloud email and I only have one iCloud account and that account was used to purchase AppleCare One (it’s my tried and true @mac.com email). She had me go into settings and view Apple care from there and confirm my device was listed and didn’t display a warning message in the settings app (it didn’t). She told me all looked good on her end and to disregard the email. She opened a case and provided me that case just incase something wonky happens.
To note the email included my device and my device serial number and she confirmed the email address it was sent from as an authentic Apple email.
I opened the support app and requested a phone call from it! I honestly never trust random emails, texts x or phone calls that are like that.To be honest, if I saw this email, I would think it was a phishing email. It has red flags all over to include a false sense of urgency.
It’s weird Apple would send something out like this. When you say it, you were sure it was from Apple you mean you called Apple using a number you looked up somewhere not in this email, right? If you get an email like this never use the contact information in the email or click links in the email. Call Apple directly from the number you know is correct.
Already confirmed it wasn’t fake. There were no links in the emails. Called AppleCare through the support app and she was able to see the notification email was generated and sent.Fake. I hope you didn't click any link in the email, if you did reset your password ASAP.
